    摘要: A method is provided for processing a substrate surface by delivering a first gas mixture comprising a first organosilicon compound, a first oxidizing gas, and one or more hydrocarbon compounds into a chamber at deposition conditions sufficient to deposit a first low dielectric constant film on the substrate surface. A second gas mixture having a second organosilicon compound and a second oxidizing gas is delivered into the chamber at deposition conditions sufficient to deposit a second low dielectric constant film on the first low dielectric constant film. The flow rate of the second oxidizing gas into the chamber is increased, and the flow rate of the second organosilicon compound into the chamber is decreased to deposit an oxide rich cap on the second low dielectric constant film.

    摘要: A gate hard mask is deposited on a gate structure using low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD). By doing so, the wet etch removal ratio (WERR) of the gate hard mask relative to the underlying polysilicon gate layer is increased when compared to prior art hard masks. The LPCVD gate hard mask will not only etch faster than prior art hard masks, but it will also reduce undercutting of the gate oxide. To provide additional control of the wet etch rate, the LPCVD hard mask can be annealed. The annealing can be tailored to achieve the desired etching rate.

    摘要: A method is provided for processing a substrate including removing amorphous carbon material disposed on a low k dielectric material with minimal or reduced defect formation and minimal dielectric constant change of the low k dielectric material. In one aspect, the invention provides a method for processing a substrate including depositing at least one dielectric layer on a substrate surface, wherein the dielectric layer comprises silicon, oxygen, and carbon and has a dielectric constant of about 3 or less, forming amorphous carbon material on the at least one dielectric layer, and removing the one or more amorphous carbon layers by exposing the one or more amorphous carbon layers to a plasma of a hydrogen-containing gas.

    摘要: A method for doubling the frequency of a lithographic process using a photo-resist template mask is described. A device layer having a photo-resist layer formed thereon is first provided. The photo-resist layer is patterned to form a photo-resist template mask. A spacer-forming material layer is deposited over the photo-resist template mask. The spacer-forming material layer is etched to form a spacer mask and to expose the photo-resist template mask. The photo-resist template mask is then removed and an image of the spacer mask is finally transferred to the device layer.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention pertain to methods of forming patterned features on a substrate having an increased density (i.e. reduced pitch) as compared to what is possible using standard photolithography processing techniques using a single high-resolution photomask while also allowing both the width of the patterned features and spacing (trench width) between the patterned features to vary within an integrated circuit.
